In a recent interview, Krystle revealed that this season gave her the opportunity to explore Mona’s evolution on a more profound level. “In Season One, Mona was just being introduced to the audience. But in Season Two, there’s a lot more emotional depth to her. She’s calmer, more self-assured, and carries a quiet strength. It gave me so much more to explore as an actor,” she shared.
Adapting to a New Performance Rhythm
For Krystle, portraying a more grounded and composed Mona required a shift in her acting approach. “My biggest challenge was learning to slow down,” she admitted. “Farhan Sir would often tell me, ‘Say everything half as fast.’ That small direction completely changed the rhythm of my performance. It helped me internalize Mona’s calm confidence — a side of myself I hadn’t explored before. It became a beautiful learning curve.”
Her ability to convey emotion through subtlety, rather than high-drama, is one of the standout aspects of her performance in the new season. “Mona’s power lies in restraint,” Krystle explained. “It’s not about loud expressions — it’s about what she’s feeling beneath the surface.”
A Deep Connection Between Krystle and Mona
Speaking about her personal connection with the character, Krystle revealed that she finds many parallels between her own life and Mona’s journey. “I relate to Mona quite a lot. We’re both actresses, both deeply passionate about our work, and we both believe strongly in people and in love,” she said. “There’s a lot of me in her — that belief in the goodness of people, even when life tests you.”
This emotional identification, she believes, made the character more authentic and her performance more natural. “When you understand your character on a personal level, it stops feeling like acting — it becomes living that person’s truth,” Krystle added.
